The Next Black Swan Is Already Here.

In finance, a black swan is a rare, unpredictable event with massive consequences. Nassim Taleb coined the term in 2007, just before the 2008 financial crisis exposed the deep rot within global banking.

Taleb argued that broken systems must be allowed to fail. Only then can we build something stronger.

In 2009, Satoshi Nakamoto launched Bitcoin, a black swan for the banking industry itself. It marked the beginning of the end for the centralised, fragile financial system we’ve blindly trusted for centuries.

Boom picks up where Bitcoin started.
Boom has taken the revolutionary foundation of blockchain and turned it into a real, usable financial operating system, designed for everyone, everywhere.

No middlemen. No gatekeepers. No banks required.

As AI-enhanced cyberattacks increase in frequency, it's only a matter of time before a zero-day exploit cripples centralised banking infrastructure.

What’s your plan B when this black swan event hits?

    www.boom.market - the global financial operating system for Cash

Whether it’s ordering a pizza or booking a holiday, every online payment has relied on the global banking system — leaving over 2 billion adults, holding $33 trillion in cash, unable to participate. At the same time, the banking system often lacks resilience, with outages disrupting global payments.

Boom digitises cash into stablecoins, bridging the offline and online economies and enabling anyone, anywhere to spend, accept, and save money online — securely, instantly, and without a bank account.

Each Boom stablecoin, including bGBP, is 100% backed by GBP reserves held and managed in-country by regulated financial institutions and invested in short-term government bonds, ensuring stability, transparency, and compliance from day one.

Boom Technologies Ltd is registered in England and Wales (No. 15034868). Boom Markets Ltd is registered under SCUML (No. SC151839892) in accordance with the Money Laundering (Prevention and Prohibition) Act, 2022.

Over 2 billion adults worldwide remain unbanked, limiting access to the digital economy. Most online payments require a bank account, but many still rely on cash, which can’t be used online.

Boom Technologies Ltd (“Boom”) digitises cash, enabling anyone to securely spend, accept, and save it online—without needing a bank account. Transactions are verified, traceable, and compliant with AML/KYC standards.

While digital assets involve volatility and regulatory risk, Boom’s tokenised GBP (bGBP) is backed 1:1 by GBP reserves held by regulated custodians. These may include government bonds, gold, Bitcoin, and cash.

Boom is not a bank and is not authorised or regulated by the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
